Distracted Driving Awareness Month: Guarantee Safety With A Professional Car Service

There’s no denying that distracted driving is a huge problem, causing plenty of car accidents across the nation. According to the National Safety Council, preliminary data indicates that as many as 40,000 people died in motor vehicle crashes in 2016, a 14 percent increase since 2014 that’s risen in part to distracted driving. And that massive rise is part of why April is the National Safety Council’s Distracted Driving Awareness Month.

At Modern Limousine Service, we take distracted driving very seriously. Your safety is our top priority, and we strive to ensure all our rides are as smooth as possible. Our drivers undergo comprehensive safety training, and in honor of Distracted Driving Awareness Month, we’re passing along some of their knowledge to you.

Car accidents are on the rise. Learn more in the video below:

What Is Distracted Driving?

Distracted driving is the act of driving while another activity takes your attention away from the road. Those activities could include making phone calls or texting, eating or drinking behind the wheel, talking to your passengers, and playing with your radio, among others.

To many people, distractions don’t seem like a big deal. They think they can multitask while behind the wheel, but even taking your eyes off the road for a second can cause a big disaster. You never know what other drivers or pedestrians are going to do, and accidents can happen at a moment’s notice.

Driver Education Prevents Distracted Driving

The best way to prevent distracted driving is education. After all, if you have an understanding of how distractions impact driving, you’ll pay more attention to safety.

At Modern Limousine Service, all our drivers undergo comprehensive safety training. We ensure they hit the road with a professional mindset, making your comfort their top priority. We also teach them how to avoid distractions, ensuring you safety on the road. And of course, our drivers undergo Department of Transportation-approved background checks and safe driving screenings to ensure they don’t have a history of accidents.
